I&#39;d just be honest and age-appropriate as you have been and with time, he&#39;ll start to understand more. <br />I just posted on a similar topic a week or so ago -- check it out! My daughter&#39;s thoughts around 3 were a bit weird, too.<br />X<br />supaSupa Dupa Freshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07659738264922395349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3033360847594813227.post-36753582371589580652009-06-07T14:55:08.884-05:002009-06-07T14:55:08.884-05:00I have two &quot;daddys,&quot; but it&#39;s a litt...I have two &quot;daddys,&quot; but it&#39;s a little different. When I was little, my bio-dad has his right terminated... a few years later my mom married a man who became my *dad.* As great of a daddy as my daddy is, I still had (and continue to have) lingering questions, thoughts... about my bio-dad (I have never met him). I honestly think Nicholas is simply trying to figure it out on his own... and he&#39;s going to ALWAYS ALWAYS have questions (I still ask my mom stuff aboutmy bio-dad). Plus, like you said, he is 3... Just continue being the awesome mom you are -- answer his questions and let him know it&#39;s okay to be confused, but also okay to love BOTH daddies. :)<br /><br />xoxAbbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05184076501715872766noreply@blogger.com
